Will it blend? (BritishTurbo build)

Well that is a little different. So it’s just getting the EEPROM replaced, then you’ll get it tuned.

correct

I have another ecu fag! awaiting on the tuner at this point im in no fucking rush to be quit honest i have not had the car much since ive owned it i drive it a month a year when everyone is racing other wise i dont care to much for the car i like to DD diesel trucks

No, you meant to say ahh, sakimano was right and I should have read his post.

;D

I think you are confusing the typical processes of a tuning business with a hobbyist.

P. S. Are you selling tunes and using n e f code to do so?

So I haven’t updated this in a while…

Here’s the latest run from my car tonight on E85, Meth and Nitrous… with my PTE 6766 turbo:

what happened at the dragstrip and the race wars?

Can’t help myself…

B5 race wars 2013 run what you brung

Race wars my car spent most of it with m under it putting in a new transmission as 1st and 2nd went bye bye in the other lol. The clutch was smoked too.

As for the track… I went last night with the car for the first time…
I basically need to learn how to drive the car lol. I did pretty bad… here’s my best ET:

You should post the video! Great work! I wish you could teach the B5 crowd a thing or two.

Hey BT, did you put in another stock tranny or did you go rebuilt with some good parts?

I don’t see a guy like you skimping on the tranny, but maybe time didn’t permit.

Good luck getting everything dialed in, I find an 11.7 single turbo time pretty respectable.

Was a stock tranny. Time and funds did not permit a rebuild lol.

Here’s a video of the 11.7 run:

BT - want me to add this to the quarter mile database? If so, give me some help on your modlist.

tune

downpipes/catback

octane of the fuel you used

power adder on your car (if stock, say so i.e. B5 S4 K03 or B8 S4 TVSr1320…and if you’re a B5 with K04/RS6 hybrids, make note. If you’re an NA car with a supercharger setup, give as much info as you can about the kit and the power adder )

boost/shot (if you’re a boosted car and know the peak boost, post it up. If you’re running nitrous, post the jet size)

other mods (intake mani? lw rotors? FMIC/SMIC? etc.)

other info (any weight reduction done? tire size? density altitude if you know it…however DA corrected times are never going on this list, but it is always interesting to know in extreme cases if a car ran at say -1000 feet, or +6000 feet)

How many runs did you get… can we see the average…

You deffinitly have to clean this up if you can… the advantage of e85 and the power level your at seems to be screeming the same song as all the other big big hp cars…loads of top end nothing else where. …

Keep at it…

I got 4 runs in:

13.7@115 (missed 3rd lol)
12.7@131
11.7@132
12.2@133

Cool thing about your car and the results…it looks like you can sleep most of the time and the car is st8ll going to run like a missle uptop…no matter how bad the et fell off the mph stays the same…good build…

Whoa 130’s. That trap is movin’! Congratulations! Now work on your launch etc… and get deep into the 11’s (although don’t get kicked out for no cage).

If you look at this data you’ll see I left a LOT of time in the 60’ and 1-2 shift…
I also was only at full boost for about 5 seconds lol.
With practice and nitrous I’m pretty sure 10s and 140+mph are doable.
The car will run a 1.9 second fats time with nitrous lol

http://i1357.photobucket.com/albums/q755/britishturbo/117-rpm-over-time_zps34bcd152.png

Make that full boost for 4 seconds lol.

Here’s some virtual dyno plots from 3rd gear runs with and without the nitrous.
Remember I didn’t run the nitrous at the track…

http://i1357.photobucket.com/albums/q755/britishturbo/32psivs35psi-w-nitrous_zpsa497479f.jpg

wow 1st and 2nd must be tough…you’re not seeing boost till 5500 RPMs, and you’re launching off 100 wtq. That’s pretty tough.

Hopefully the nitrous fills in that massive gap in your powerband

Problem with these big big power builds in B5 land is that they tend to wait a month for boost. The relatively tiny V6 is really not able to help fill in the early part of the curve for you.

This is why ‘the dragstrip is irrelevant’ is the big argument of those Tial guys with poor tuning…they are setup to fail. The powerband is moved so far to the right, they can never really get into it, unless they just park it in fourth and do a speed test at double or triple the speed limit. They’re trying to turn the road into the dyno…and avoiding the entire sub 80 mph world of first second and third…the world 99.99% of us do 99.99% of our driving.

It just doesn’t work.

The majority of the gap was from poor 1-2 shifting lol. Once I get more confidence there (I had just swapped tranny for 1-2 shift collar failure) then that will help a lot.
But yeah the nitrous makes a big difference in the spool.

Here’s a little on ramp fun from this morning. And yes… I need a Go Pro lol.
